Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10584 · British Aerospace Jetstream Model 3101 Airplanes
British Aerospace Jetstream Model 3101 Airplanes
Jetstream Model 3101 airplanes, serial numbers 602 through 605, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain British Aerospace Jetstream Model 3101 airplanes. This AD requires repositioning the fuel cross feed pipes in the lower center fuselage to give an overall clearance of 2 inches when measuring from the bottom of Frame Station 223. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for the United Kingdom. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent the fuel pipe from fracturing during a wheels up landing because of the positioning of the fuel cross feed pipes, which could result in an airplane fire.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
